Oh this is such a wonderful and intimate write ❤️ especially love;"Vignettes such as these shimmer within me; settle me, center me, shelter me; creates a strength I believe I've fostered in my children." Beautifully penned.❤️

Ah, such vignettes are special indeed. Such memories are the most precious things in our lives perhaps. You create a beautiful picture of a farm life, cherished and shared with family. And to inculcate the same strength in your children is wonderful.-HA

As I read, I was thinking exactly that.....how your wonderful childhood you repeated with your own children - a foundation for their lives definitely better than money in the bank - gardening, animals, love of nature, song - happiness. Loved this, Margaret.

Palm a poem as if fragile even if the words are bold. Let them sink into your skin as if moonlight, let them flow through your veins until they become ordinary - for only then will we know they nourished.

Let Life Happen

"What should I say about your tendency to doubt your struggle or to harmonize your inner and outer life? My wish is ever strong that you find enough patience within you and enough simplicity to have faith. May you gain more and more trust in what is challenging, and confidence in the solitude you bear. Let life happen to you. Believe me: life is in the right in any case." (Rainer Maria Rilke) Furnborg, Jonsered, Sweden, November 4, 1904 Letters to a Young Poet
